The beginning of the year is definitely going to make you go ‘Awwww.’ The transition between 2024 and 2025 has been indeed an eventful one. Fiesta Bowl as the name suggests has been a celebration for James Franklin and Penn State Nittany Lions. After all, they grabbed a big Bowl win grabbing a 14-31 victory. But what about Boise State Broncos?

Well, they have Colorado Buffaloes HC Deion Sanders to lift their spirits. Their running back,ja Ashton Jeanty found Coach Prime as his hypeman. Not just the Broncos, even Arizona State HC Kenny Dillingham got Deion’s back in his hard time.  

Deion Sanders starts the new year spreading positivity 

Who would have thought that the new year would gift fans with some heartwarming stories? Thanks to Deion. Without him, it would not have been possible. After all, the Buffs HC is now diligently living up to being a good human being first. Even that meant embracing his rivals. Being a head coach himself, he knows what the Sun Devils HC Dillingham must be going through. In the second year of his tenure, he gifted Arizona State a season to remember. However, Steve Sarkisian’s Texas Longhorns gave them a hard time. Even though the Sun Devils put up a fight, coming back from 16 points down in the fourth quarter and moving the quarterfinal game into overtime, Texas was able to pull off a 39-31 win. That’s when Deion thought to step in to motivate Dillingham.

He tweeted, “@KennyDillingham You represented all of us from the @Big12 well my brother. We are proud of u and your team. God bless u all. You’re awesome COTY.” Now Deion had to acknowledge the Sun Devils’ tough journey this season. They were able to win a bye in the College Football Playoff. Dillingham’s boys even grabbed wins over two ranked opponents. In the end, Arizona State dominated Iowa State to clinch a spot in the CFP. Even though the Buff’s journey looked to be positive, they ultimately got unlucky.

Deion’s Colorado had a chance at making the Big 12 championship themselves. Sadly, their defeat to the Kansas Jayhawks in Week 13 ultimately derailed their chances at a spot. Not just this, Dillingham grabbed the title of Big 12 Coach of the Year over Sanders. Yet then Coach Prime is proud of his fellow head coach. And guess what? It’s not just the rival coach.

Boise State’s phenom finds ally in Deion Sanders

Deion Sanders is a man who never compromises with his classiness. Every other day, he proves why his influence extends beyond the sidelines. It was time for him to stand beside Boise State Broncos RB Jeanty. After all, he could feel Jeanty’s pain behind his big dreams getting crushed into pieces. 

Spencer Danielson’s phenom was pursuing Barry Sanders’ all-time single-season rushing record. Unfortunately, he fell short as he finished 28 yards shy of breaking the record in last night’s Fiesta Bowl. Plus, Penn State Nittany Lions handed them a 14-31 loss. That’s when fans pounced upon Jeanty claiming that he was never as good as his 2,500 rushing yards suggested prior to Buffs dual-threat Travis Hunter winning the award. While the fans got busy making fun of Jeanty, Coach Prime was in the opposite camp.

On January 1, Deion Sanders tweeted, “Proud of you young man. Your future is as bright as it gets. Keep God 1st which I know u will. Dismiss the fools that are negative on every day that ends with a “Y”. You are HIM my man. Got has u covered. Ashton Jeanty.” Now that’s who Deion Sanders is, the ultimate hypeman.
